A simple solution is to download the latest AIO version of the Windows OS you want from a torrent site. Believe it or not it is perfectly legal if you use the license key on the back of the computer, or keep "Secure Boot" enabled in the UEFI. (Secure Boot applies the computer's embedded Windows license to the installed OS if it is the same version that came with the computer. Example: Windows 7 Home Premium.)

These people release the updates monthly with the latest Windows updates. Saves so much time with new installs!

You are completely wrong about Secure Boot.

Windows 7 is not compatible with Secure Boot and you can't boot from a Windows 7 DVD/USB if Secure Boot is enabled in UEFI settings.

So the laptop came with 8.1 and since 8.1 installer natively supports usb 3 during install I have no issue using a flash drive becasue it works with the usb 3 drivers and the laptop only has all usb 3 ports not even a single 2.0 port!! So since I want Windows 7 on it and Windows 7 installer doesn't natively support usb 3 drivers unless you integrate them into iso

Mate, i will tell you a secret that many peoples are not aware of. You can simply use either "Windows 8" or "Windows 8.1" install media (either USB or DVD ) to install "Windows 7" !. Yes, "Windows 8.1" installer officially supports installing all NT6 family operating systems including "Windows 7" , "Server 2008" and "Server 2008 R2" - only exception is Windows Vista ( If you don't know, "Windows 7" installer can install Vista too).

1. Create a "Windows 8.1 x64" install USB with FAT32 as file system (using DISKPART ). The edition of "Windows 8 doesn't matter - you can use either a "Pro" , "Core" or "Enterprise Trial" install DVD as source.
